Layer 7: Application Layer The application layer describes the interface between two applications, on separate computers Application layer protocols are used by programs that fall into two categories: Provide services to a user, such as a browser and Web server Utility programs that provide services to the system, such as SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) programs that monitor and gather information about network traffic Payload is the data that is passed between applications or utility programs and the OS Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. Layer 6: Presentation Layer The presentation layer is responsible for reformatting, compressing, and/or encrypting data in a way that the receiving application can read Example: An email message can be encrypted at the Presentation layer by the email client or by the OS Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. Layer 5: Session Layer The session layer describes how data between applications is synched and recovered if messages don’t arrive intact at the receiving application The application, presentation, and session layers are intertwined It is often difficult to distinguish between them Most tasks are performed by the OS when an application makes an API call to the OS An API (application programming interface) call is the method an application uses when it makes a request of the OS Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. Layer 4: Transport Layer The transport layer is responsible for transporting Application layer payloads from one application to another Two main Transport layer protocols are: TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) - makes a connection with the end host, checks whether data was received; called a connection-oriented protocol UDP (User Datagram Protocol) - does not guarantee delivery by first connecting and checking whether data is received; called a connectionless protocol Protocols add control information in an area at the beginning of the payload (called header) Encapsulation is the process of adding a header to the data inherited from the layer above The Transport layer header addresses the receiving application by a number called a port If a message is too large, TCP divides it into smaller messages called segments In UDP, the message is called a datagram Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. Layer 3: Network Layer The network layer is responsible for moving messages from one node to another until they reach the destination host The principal protocol used by this layer is IP (Internet Protocol) IP adds its own network layer header to the segment or datagram The entire network layer message is called a packet An IP address is an address assigned to each node on a network The network layer uses it to uniquely identify each host IP relies on several routing protocols to find the best route for a packet to take to reach destination ICMP and ARP are examples Network layer protocol will divide large packets into smaller packets in a process called fragmentation Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. Layer 2: Data Link Layer Layers 2 and 1 are responsible for interfacing with physical hardware on the local network Protocols at these layers are programmed into firmware of a computer’s NIC and other hardware Type of networking hardware or technology used on a network determine the data link layer protocol used Ethernet and Wi-Fi are examples The data link layer puts control information in a data link layer header and at the end of the packet in a trailer The entire data link layer message is called a frame A MAC (Media Access Control) address is also called a physical address, hardware address, or data link layer address It is embedded on every network adapter Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. Layer 1: Physical Layer The physical layer is responsible for sending bits via a wired or wireless transmission Bits can be transmitted as: Wavelengths in the air Voltage on a copper wire Light (via fiber-optic cabling) Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. Protocol Data Unit or PDU Protocol data unit (PDU) is the technical name for a group of bits as it moves from one layer to the next and from one LAN to the next Technicians loosely call this group of bits a message or a transmission Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage.

Safety Procedures and Policies Network and computer technicians need to know how to protect themselves As wells as protect sensitive electronic components This section takes a look at some best practices for safety Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. Emergency Procedures Know the best escape route or emergency exit Fire Suppression Systems - have a fire suppression system in the data center that includes: Emergency alert system Portable fire extinguishers Emergency power-off switch Ask yourself: Does the security system allow access during a failure (fail open) or deny access during the failure (fail close)? An SDS (safety data sheet) explains how to properly handle substances such as chemical solvents and how to dispose of them Includes information such as identification, first-aid measures, fire-fighting measures, accidental release measures, handling and storage guidelines, exposure controls, and physical and chemical properties Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. Safety Procedures (1 of 4) Electrical and tool safety is generally regulated by OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) OSHA guidelines when using power tools: Wear PPE (personal protective equipment) Keep all tools in good condition and properly store tools not in use Use the right tool for the job and operate the tool according to the manufacturer’s instructions Watch out for trip hazards, so you and others don’t stumble on a tool or cord Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. Safety Procedures (2 of 4) Lifting Heavy Objects - follow these guidelines: Decide which side of object to face so load is most balanced Stand close to the object with your feet apart Keep your back straight, bend knees and grip load Lift with your legs, arms, and shoulders (not your back or stomach) Keep the load close to your body and avoid twisting your body while you’re holding it To put the object down, keep your back as straight as possible and lower object by bending your knees Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. Safety Procedures (3 of 4) Protecting Against Static Electricity Computer components are grounded inside a computer case Grounding means that a device is connected directly to the earth Sensitive electronic components can be damaged by ESD (electrostatic discharge) Static electricity can cause two types of damage: Catastrophic failure - destroyed beyond use Upset failure - shorten the life of a component Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part. Safety Procedures (4 of 4) Before touching a component, ground yourself by: Wearing an ESD strap around your wrist that clips onto the chassis or computer case Touching the case before touching any component inside the case Storing a component inside an antistatic bag In addition to protecting against ESD, always shut down and unplug a computer before working inside it Jill West, CompTIA Network+ Guide to Networks, 9th Edition. © 2022 Cengage.
